Ah, that's a lovely idea -- but I had oversimplified, and this doesn't quite scale up. \version "2.18.2" \language "english" \new Score { \new Staff { \numericTimeSignature << \new Voice = "a" \relative c' { \voiceOne c16 g' ~ <e g>8 ~ q2. ~ \set tieWaitForNote = ##t q2 ~ } \context Voice = "a" \relative c' { s4 s8 \voiceTwo f \override Beam.grow-direction = #RIGHT f16 [ %{ \override NoteHead.transparent = ##t %} f f f f f f f ] \override Beam.grow-direction = #LEFT f [ f f %{ \revert NoteHead.transparent %} f ] ~ f4 ~ <e f>2 } \new Voice = "b" \relative c' { \voiceTwo r4 r8 s8 s2 s2 \voiceOne a'8 g4. } >> \unset tieWaitForNote } } If you uncomment the transparent note heads, it's a right bloody mess. I might have to rethink it. Maybe two staves are the only way. hjh _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
